Hi,
I built a RC5 board a while ago and finally got around to installing it. I am running Pcbv2 with a Panda card all connected over udp.
Which arduino code will work for this setup? The 1 I found won’t compile. It is missing EtherCard.h library. The latest 1 on github says “removed mcp23017” which the rc5 board still uses.

Google “adding libraries to Arduino IDE” then search and install EtherCard.
That’s because I guess it’s a common library.
Sometimes people also forget to extract the zip file before running an ino, but it is not the case here I think.
Did you try beta 8 here: Releases · SK21/AOG_RC · GitHub
The firmware hasn’t changed in awhile.You can set up the board on the module page:
The pins to use are here:
If using pin 2 for flow the nano has to mount on the board first with stacking headers. Pin 2 on the ethernet shield must be removed before mounting on top of the nano because it interfers with the signal. You could just use pin 3 to avoid that problem.
Thank you,
I gave Beta 8 a try, still the same problem . Arduino file won’t compile missing “Ethercard.h”. Using Arduino IDE
Am I making a mistake trying to load the Nano by usb before starting the Rate App?
Also, I see a NanoRateNB.ino.hex and a NanoRateOB.ino.hex. What are these? Am I supposed to install somehow? I have only used .hex with teensyloader before.
Sorry for my confusion.

There is a setup program here: GitHub - SK21/PCBsetup: Setup software for AgOpengGPs rate control and steering modules.
It has default hex files that may be the newest. If not you can select those hex files from the release.
